Three researchers from Lund University in Sweden have been awarded grants by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation totalling SEK 87 million for research on the semiconductors for the future, our immunological memory and next-generation immunotherapies. The latter is lead by WCMM's own Filipe Pereira. Three researchers from Lund University in Sweden have been awarded grants by the Knut and Alice

For the first time, an international team of scientists have calculated the total land area that the countries of the world have included in their individual plans for climate action, known as nationally determined contributions. The results show a big divide between the countries' expected land use and the actual potential of land to mitigate climate change. “By totalling the aggregate land area

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have succeeded in developing a simple hydrocarbon molecule with a logic gate function, similar to that in transistors, in a single molecule. The discovery could make electric components on a molecular scale possible in the future. The results are published in Nature Communications. Manufacturing very small components is an important challenge in both resear

Sweden's investments in climate-friendly green steel are a potential driving force for both European competitiveness and energy independence. However, without a sustainable, strategic industrial policy, there is a risk that the technology will instead be commercially exploited in China, according to a new thesis from Lund University in Sweden. For better or worse, industrial policy plays a decisiv

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. For the first time, researchers have succeeded in creating an iron molecule that can function both as a photocatalyst to produce fuel and in solar cells to produce electricity. The results indicate that the iron molecule could replace the more expensive and rarer metals used today. Some photocatalysts and solar cells

Ten years have passed since the countries of the world signed the Paris Agreement. Political scientist Fariborz Zelli sums up the surprises – both positive and negative – in climate policy over the past ten years and also looks ahead. What has been the biggest success of the Paris Agreement so far?I would say the biggest success is that the UN has succeeded in keeping its central role in global cl

Astronomers from Lund University in Sweden have now found the explanation to a recent mystery at the centre of the Milky Way galaxy: the high levels of scandium discovered last spring near the galaxy’s giant black hole were in fact an optical illusion.

Instead, we must reduce our energy consumption, as the total energy consumption within road transports is not decreasing”, explains David Harnesk, research

A billion hectares – or an area a bit larger than the US – that is how much land that would be required globally to meet countries’ net-zero climate targets. For the first time researchers can show the rate and extent of projected land use changes, geographically and over time. The findings demonstrate a gap between governments’ expected reliance on land and the role that land can realistically pl

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The EU biofuel regulation does not guarantee a reduced climate impact – nor does it address the core issue of substantially reducing transport emissions, according to a new doctoral thesis from Lund University in Sweden. “On a smaller scale, biofuels can be a good alternative for public transport, but we cannot solve

Positivity, humour and tireless energy have characterised Professor Roland Andersson's 40 years at the Faculty. As a happy retiree-to-be, he looks back on his time here. "My advice is to prepare in time", he says. Roland Andersson is a surgeon and professor. He is also one of the pioneers in life science and innovation and was involved in the founding of the Lund company Probi. For some time he wa
